This is so cool. This guy Damien Walters is a free runner, which I guess means he runs upside down. It’s like a roller coaster, but a lot more work and way scarier in its own way, but not for us, because we’re not doing it.

I feel it bears noting that running a loop de loop has nothing whatsoever to do with drinking Pepsi Max. Advertising is weird.

This is actually amazing.

I have mixed feeling about symphonic metal, metal acts playing with orchestras, and string covers of metal tracks (which are usually Metallica tracks). But this? This.  THIS.

These guys are Luka Sulic and Stjepan Hauser of Croatia, known as 2Cellos.

I have no idea what’s going on, so here’s a cat on a skateboard…

What? And he does tricks! Really impressive tricks, like jumping over a rottweiller.

I swear, my cats suck. All they do is whine for canned food even though they ALREADY HAVE DISHES FULL OF CANNED FOOD. Lately they have taken to waking me up in the middle of the night to demand food, even though, as I have mentioned, they already have food, food they have liked since they decided they didn’t like the food before it, but have now decided they don’t like. Stupid cats. (Oh God, I hope they don’t read my blog or I’ll pay for that comment later)

Oh, and the skateboard is remote controlled and named Ollie.

Of course it is.

When I was about six years old, my school put on a show. I sang a song with my boyfriend at the time, Matthew Jolly (at least, I think it was with Matthew that I sang. We were a cute couple. We used to play Wonder Woman and Superman. I was Wonder Woman. I sometimes wonder what happened to him, and whether he ever got over me). The song was “A Boy and a Girl in a Little Canoe.” We sat in a makeshift canoe made out of a box, and when I sang “Get out and swim!” he jumped out and pretended to swim on the floor.

I also played Goldilocks in a school production of “The Three Bears.” For a costume, my mother cut strips of yellow construction paper, curled them with scissors, and taped them to my head.

I’m telling you this not to show off but to put being six in perspective, so you can appreciate this kid even more. Because holy fark, he’s six! And look what he’s doing!

This was posted on Youtube over a year ago but I just saw it now when someone posted it on Facebook. I can’t remember who already, so, whoever you are, props.

Have you seen this yet? I would have posted it yesterday but ran out of time.

It’s Jean Claude Van Damme doing the splits between two moving trucks to demonstrate the “precision and stability of Volvo Dynamic Steering.”

I wonder how they talked him into this.

There’s something beautiful about this. And a little disturbing.

Redditor Jamesahyoung spent his first Halloween as an amputee really working the theme, as a shark attack victim.

Asked if he lost his arm and leg in a shark attack, he replied, ”Nope, this was just a costume idea I got from redditors. I tripped and fell under a train I was running for.”

He adds, “I paid the fare and it only took me 50 meters, so I’m out of pocket really too.”

*Rimshot*

So, dude’s sense of humour is intact. Amazing.

Here is a video of a man snorting paint and shooting it out of his eyes onto canvas.

His name is Leandro Granato and he’s from Argentina. He looks very serious.

I’m going to bed. But first, here’s a Ukrainian guy hammering nails into wood with his bare hands.

I love how there’s all this talking in the video and it is totally unnecessary. Because hammering nails with his bare hands.

Here is a guy dressed as Darth Vader and playing the Star Wars theme on flaming bagpipes while riding a unicycle.

Pfffft. Whatever. The shoes are all wrong.

His name is Brian Kidd and he’s known around Portland as The Unipiper. Just doing what the sign says.

Thanks to my friend Ashley for sending this one my way. Holy inappropriate Batman. I am so very uncomfortable looking at this Tumblr.

It’s called Selfies At Serious Places and is basically exactly that. Making duckface at the Vietnam Memorial and the Berlin Wall! Capturing your big eyed…is that amusement?… in the gas chamber at Auschwitz. But you hashtagged “respect” so that’s OK.

Idiot.

It’s worth noting, as the Tumblr’s owner does, however, that “no one photo—even a thumbs-up selfie at the Holocaust Memorial—defines a person.”
